Normally, few things feel more affirming than watching Only Connect and getting an answer that the contestants don't. But a couple of weeks ago it just got depressing when, even after being given the finished set of "Arizona", "Crossing", "Proxy" and "Simple", and even after one of them had mentioned Raising Arizona…

Weird, huh? Who'd have thought the French have any interest in erotica?

I still have trouble getting my head around the idea of Dave making original programming. It's the channel you go to for late-night QI repeats, not to see something you haven't already seen elsewhere.

Sexbots with guns.
